EA have been known to try some odd marketing concepts before and this one is another one to add to that ever growing pile of WTF’s. With the mainstream media constantly blaming gaming for every atrocity under the sun it takes a certain level of guts to actively make a trailer that not only doesn’t say anything positive about the …

The last couple of years have been very good to us gamers, with every single year packing more than a handful of major releases. That said, I don’t think that many of you have fully realised just how MASSIVE the 2011 game release schedule is and just how many amazing games will be fighting to lighten your wallet. I dug …

Eyes down, the story’s down here… Police stormed a Swedish house over the weekend after an overly attentive neighbour called them claiming that a group of men were attacking a women in the apartment across the road. Understandably it was a bit of an awkward situation when the 8 police officers arrived and demanded to know who was getting beaten …

Remember that awfully cool yet strangely disturbing live action Mortal Kombat short that we posted last year? It was created in an attempt to pitch a Mortal Kombat movie reboot, but the idea was canned not too long after. Fans of Mortal Kombat will be really happy to hear that the concept was awarded a 10 episode web series. Sure …

That’s James Cameron’s Avatar the movie in case you were wondering, not the game, which was mediocre at best. The comparison is, naturally, being made by Crytek’s president and creative director Cevat Yerli (man, I thought my name was crazy). The 3D functionality in Crysis 2 is a big part of what Crytek has been focusing on during development, and …

And one of a few other games some very, very clever people have made at Standford University. Ingmar Riedel-Kruse has essentially made a biotic videogame. Instead of designing characters and programing stuff like path-finding algorithms and physics, he’s just made single-celled organisms (paramecium) act as the in-game sprites and characters. The wriggly little buggers float about in fluid-filled container with …
